The team behind
The Village Art Classes

With face-to-face, easy-to-follow guidance from our skilled tutors, we’ll walk you through basic art techniques one step at a time. Beginner or beyond, our art classes are designed to suit a wide range of abilities, and our talented team knows just how to craft a class that fits you.

“As you develop your artist's eye, you’ll soon see the world around you with a new perspective. The details are richer, the shadows deeper, the colours brighter, the textures more varied than you’d ever dreamed.”
